Taken from today's NYDN: http://www.nydailynews.com/entertai...ults-black-panther-showings-article-1.3824901 Well, looks like our dear Russian friends are warming up the troll mechanism for the upcoming elections!
Saw it last night guys. Was amazing. So many African people showed up wearing garments and dashiki. Such a well made film and the quote by Killmonger is gonna be so memorable for a long time
Didn't want to make this into a BP thread though. Russian Trolls are hard at work trying to stir up controversy regarding this movie. They're playing the race card and the saddest thing is, too many Americans are gonna buy into it because it fits their own core beliefs.
swayze's dead and charlie sheen will be useless, it's on c thomas howell and jennifer grey to save us all
Really not a problem since Trump is such a great friend of Russia. Putin won't have to go thru this much trouble. Trump will roll out the welcome wagon and his supporters will throw flowers. The only question will be how China will collect on all that American Debt Trump is gonna stick them with.
Nah bro - this is a serious fuckin problem we need to take care of. Can't have Russia paying for advertisements on social media. People are unable to think for themselves once they've laid eyes upon Russian propaganda. It's almost as convincing as CNN & MSNBC propaganda.
Is it really Russia? I mean come on. We are talking about a country where the GDP is maybe one tenth of USA. A corrupt economy, a semi dictatorship. A joke of a military power compared to USA. Is Russia being used as a pawn in this theater of US Politics?
Trump, the GOP and the Far Right would want you to think that Brook. The reality is Russia is hardly some basket case shit hole country incapable of doing what our Intel professionals say they're doing. Any country with the war making capacity that Russia has cannot be dismissed. I choose to believe the professional spies rather than the Devin Nunes's of the world when it comes to espionage tactics. There's plenty evidence there but Trump refused to believe it and his cronies try their best to discredit it. Hell, even NKor can hack into both Twitter and Facebook. If wikileaks can do it, why would you think Russia can't? This is war on an entirely different level Brook... The "Cold" war has evolved into the "Cyber" war. As the saying goes: " The first casualty of war always the truth.."
And twitter feeds and instagrams. They're Facebook Posts, not ads. Idiots and weak minded fools looking for validation of their pov gravitate to these threads and posts. Just like White Supremacists flock to their sites. Since the GOP and the Right have done such an effective job of shitting on the mainstream media, people have now come to depend on these marginal postings as their version of the truth. That makes the cyberwarrior's job much easier since they know idiots will believe anything they post. The information war is as important as the war on the battlefield. Perhaps even moreso. The GOP created this situation with their constant whining about the media. Now they want to attack Social Media as its working against Trump. They will do anything and excuse anything to defend him.
So you're saying people who already wanted to vote for Trump were convinced to go through with it by social media. Devastating.
I'm saying idiots that wanted to believe any and everything evil about Hillary Clinton ate this bullshit like it was dessert. Putin's cyberwarriors were only too glad to accommodate them. Just like now when weak minded conspiracy nuts think the FBI is the enemy simply because they're investigating Trump. Putin is winning the CyberWar with GOP help.
Just like those who want to believe anything about Trump being a white supremacist, etc. will believe any fake news as long as this fake news aligns with what they want to believe. Here's the KKK grand wizard seen scheming with his klansmen...
So they weren't voting for Hillary anyway. Got it. Btw, one of the things they did was organize opposing marches after the election. The only one that got a decent turn out was the anti Trump march in front of trump tower.
Just because someone wasn't voting for Hillary doesn't mean they would vote for Trump unless the weakminded fool needed a reason to vote for Trump instead of staying home.
That's exactly it... those who want to believe will believe anything, just like in the other thread with that murderer being a white supremacist despite proven to be fake news. Trump has been in public spotlight around people like Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, etc. basically his entire adult life. They never called him a racist before he ran for president. Do you really think that a man in his late 60s can all of a sudden become a racist or was he hiding it so well for decades? The media will twist the facts, quote words out of context to create whatever picture they need to push to their audience. If the audience doesn't get what they want to hear, they will change the channel. And there goes ad revenue, which is what it's all about at the end of the day.
